I LOVED this dress. I only wore it to the ceremony for a few hours, and it is in great shape. Small alterations done in the waist area and the length. I am a size 4 in normal dresses, and this dress was a size 8, which is equivalent to a standard size 4. I am 5'5'' and wore 4 inch heels. This is the description from the designer: Sheer, scalloped lace and mesh give this romantic Katie May dress a delicate, ethereal finish. This striking gown cuts a slim profile through the waist and hips, and the floor-length skirt flares into a trailing mermaid hem. Boned bodice with illusion sweetheart neckline. Deep V back. Sheer mesh 3/4 sleeves and lace cuffs. Ruched seam at hidden back zip. Fully lined in charmeuse.
